I've a question about E. W. Korngold. I recently bought his opera Die Kathrin on the CPO label and I am enthralled by its beauty. I've liked everything by Korngold and feel that his operas should be staged more often. So far, I've Violanta, Der Ring des Polykrates, Die Kathrin, Die Tote Stadt and Das Wunder der Heliane. Have I finished getting every opera Korngold ever composed or am I missing some unknown gems? Please help by identifying the operas I need to complete my Korngold opera collection. Also, I've a serious complaint about classical labels. Why do they discontinue issuing certain discs? I am most upset with Philips for discontinuing Rossini's Le Comte Ory with Gardiner conducting and Werther with Sir Colin Davis. I am also hoping that Supraphon will reissue Julietta by Martinu. I've been searching record store shelves for these operas for years with no luck. I also want Weinberger's Schwanda the Bagpiper. (Fortunately, two glorious excerpts are available in a disc with German arias with Jerusalem on Sony). Why do they do this? Just when I started to learn about these rare gems, the record labels decide to discontinue making these discs. Does anyone know of places that will have these rare discontinued discs? Should I just wait, hope and pray that they are simply in the process of remastering or reissuing these as 2 for the price of one? Would it help to write to these labels? Son Lieu <[log in to unmask]>
